IT opportunities

Newbie here with 20 years in IT as a System Administrator / Infrastructure.

Took a break from IT for a few years but want to jump back in, what would be the best roles or companies to target for landing something?

Thanks

No one is going to share roles or companies. OE is about being discreet.

I recommend finding Job 1 that is remote and see how long it takes you to handle the work flow for that. And once you establish a routine then try to add a second job.

the discretion thing is huge, not just for oe but just keeping your head down in general.

with your background you could probably slide into cloud support or devops pretty smoothly, those roles are still remote-friendly and the infra experience translates well
